Nakypilo (in English: Boiled up or Fed up) is a media outlet based in Kharkiv, founded initially as an NGO and a press centre in response to Euromaidan events in Ukraine. It started as a platform for people to talk about their problems and for NGOs to present their initiatives. Nakypilo's press centre formed a team, broadcasted it via social media, and developed a YouTube channel.
The team quickly realised it needed to turn it into a proper independent online media outlet that included news, stories, and explainers in culture and politics. With the support of grants, Nakypilo developed 10 formats, including media for media (B2B), radio (applying for FM frequency), and educational/training centre for journalists.
Until the beginning of the war on February 2022, Nkypilo's revenue came from grants from international organisations and advertising.
Its mission is to build a civil society via participation and to inspire people to act. It used to know its audience almost personally and participated in demonstrations and political actions.
On 24 February 2022, people started subscribing more to Nakypilo in the search for information, so the newsroom focused on essential information for the local population in Kharkiv.
